What is Your Hair Type?

For those with straight, smooth hair, hair brushing is unlikely to seriously damage hair as the brush or comb can glide through seamlessly. Those of us with wavy or curly hair may find that coils and knots form quickly, so brushing is necessary to clear these from the hair. However, over-brushing curly and wavy hair can lead to breakage as the brush tears through small knots, so it’s a case of balancing the need to untangle with the need to protect your hair. It’s recommended not to go more than a week without brushing your hair, to stop tangles becoming too knotted.

How to Brush

If your hair is smooth and relatively untangled, dry brushing is the way to go. If your hair is more prone to tangling, it’s best to dampen hair and comb an oil or serum through with your fingers before you tackle it with a brush. Do be aware that wet hair is more elastic and therefore more prone to breakage, so brush gently and don’t tear the brush or comb through tangles.

Type of Brush

For those with wavy to curly hair, detangler brushes are a lifesaver. With longer bristles interspersed with shorter ones, these brushes gently but effectively untangle your hair. For those with straighter hair, a fine-toothed comb will really sort those knots and tangles out.

A Healthy Diet

A healthy diet is the best, most effective way to improve hair health. In order to do this, our body needs enough protein, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, C, and A. This means eating plenty of eggs, poultry, sardines, sweet potatoes and vegetables such as carrots, spinach, and broccoli.

Proper Hair Care

Using a conditioner is the most important thing because you have to moisturize your hair as much as possible. That’s why it’s best to use one with nut oils, such as coconut and almond, as they’ll help rebuild the hair faster. Using hair masks is also a great way to hydrate and nurture damaged hair.

Avoid Styling Tools

It’s a known fact that styling tools are damaging our hair more than anything else, so if your hair is already damaged and dry it’s best to avoid them for a little while. However, if you still have to use some of the styling tools, make sure to dial down the heat a little and use protectant spray.

Cut It

As your hair grows longer, the ends will become will dry and split off and end up as split ends. While this isn’t unhealthy for your overall body, it’s not great for your hair because it makes it thinner and frizzier, which is not what you want. This is why you should cut or trim at least 2-3 times a year, or more if you can afford it!

Wash It Less

A lot of people wash their hair much more than you need to. While different types of hair need different things, you really should not wash your hair more than twice a week. If you do it too much, it will dry it out and also affect your scalp health. Also, the longer you go without shampooing, the easier it will be to not wash your hair for longer periods of time while still having it look good.

Shampoo

While you should shampoo your hair less than you currently do, you should also use less shampoo than you think you need. Since you’re really just supposed to shampoo your scalp not your entire head, you really only need a quarter-size amount of shampoo or less!

No matter what your goals are, if you don’t cut your hair often enough, it will just start to split at the ends, making it frizzy, thin, and definitely not attractive. If you’re worried about the costs, look into getting your hair done by student stylists.

If you’re looking to keep the length of your hair where it’s at currently, it’s suggested to cut it every 4-6 weeks. Every month your hair grows about half an inch, so that’s why this time frame is good just to get a little trim.

If you’re trying to grow your hair out long, it’s good to actually get a trim every 3 months or so. This is because when you get rid of your old, damaged hair, new hair is encouraged to grow and at a slightly faster pace. So make sure you get rid of those split ends at least a few times a year.
